Oh brother do I have a million dumb ideas about growing weed.

So has any company ever manufactured a grow tent with the inside any colour but silver and white?

I looked at the reflective values for each colour as seen below

Light relfective value of colour chart


Ok but for a small reflective percentage light loss a tent could be seriously pimped out in yellow green and purple mylar not this boring silver or white which is so 2020.

One other factor, colours absorb that colour spectrum somewhat so green would absorb some green and reflect more red and blue but that's a small point and more complicated than I make out.

So comments, insults or any other brilliant totally dumb ideas please add below with the appropriate emoji 🤏

Hey KG1,
I see where you are going with this and I love the fact that you thinking outside the grow box. My thought is if it ain’t broke don’t fix it school of thought. I do applaud your effort and your homework with the color light reflective chart.
